Why Do I Have to Pay Quarterly?Are program is all about sustainability. Paying quarterly allows us to deliver quality products consistently. Most people don't understand a farmer's life. Farmer Jones and his partnering farmers must stay planned at least 6 months at a time in order to ensure we are capable of delivering quality foods. Quarterly also helps the member by allowing the ability to create new budgets for food purchasing for the next 3 months. Our goal is to eventually off set and surpass your current visits to the grocery store.
